Bundesliga Boy Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 No. Groundhop can cover various leagues, as noted above with Cumbernauld Colts from the Lowland League also a candidate for the Friday night game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aguerooooo Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Oh right, wondered why Mid Annandale were only South team mentioned?Be good if they got involved with the teams in the South League. Good days out in the towns down here in the Shire. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good days out in the towns down here in the Shire. It has been suggested to the League that we should attempt a ground hop and it was just suggested that it was gonna be too hard to achieve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mantis Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 So are they visiting Broadwood on the basis that Colts are now the primary club there and not Clyde? I know a lot of the saddos hoppers won't visit a groundsharing club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bundesliga Boy Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Fantastic come from behind victory and a wonderful strike that deserved to win any game. But OMG it wasn’t half absolute baltic indoors! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnie_man Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I'm guessing that the guys that arrange this weekend will be rubbing their hands at the expected number of new entrants for next season give they've never done Junior fitba to the best of my knowledge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mantis Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 A West or East Superleague weekend would have been more interesting imo than the last couple of years mopping up stray LL and EOS grounds, but complete leagues is what these beer-bellied, SLR-toting anoraks seem to want. Mind you the organiser said he approached the Juniors and... wait for it... they weren't interested. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I read that they had presented at a West Region meeting and received fairly positive feedback. Maybe it was all to difficult for their fixtures secretary to comprehend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told by somebody at Whitehill that the Juniors weren't prepared to stagger kick off times and rearrange fixtures to Sunday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
